Help me get my friend into Bitcoin! Buy his Call of Duty: Black Ops - 9BTC?

My friend couldn't sell this to anyone at school. He told me if I could sell it for an amount of bitcoins at least equal to $40 USD, he would start taking bitcoin seriously. Any takers?

Can't because all my money is in a bank acount managed by my parents at the moment(I'm 14). I can't buy BTC any other way either because my dad soesn't beleive in it either because he thinks it is illegal.

That sucks. Would your dad be willing to talk to someone from the bitcoin community to clarify some things about bitcoin? I'm sure someone would love to help you out. I'd do it, but I'm only 16, so he might not take me seriously. Does that sound like a good idea, or would you not be comfortable with that?

It has to do with first the fact he doesn't beleive that the only reason for mining really is hashing the network. He beleives something illegal is going on from their. In addition he is a pretty stick to the laws kind of guy. (Even though I've heard all about the trouble and running from cops he did when he was young.) I will eventually try to get him to accept the fact I am going to use my new gpu to mine no matter if he likes it or not. I will just pay him for electricity and all problems will be solved. I think I will make him sit down and watch when bitcoins gets on fox(I'm pretty sure it will) and that should help sway him. I might tell him to that no matter what the goverment says either they won't be able to stop it and that he won't stop me so he should just accept it.(good thing that my case can be locked. I am going to lock it and disable the power button(oh crap the psu) so he can't turn it off either.
